In a case that reeks of moral policing, a couple out to watch a film over the weekend were pulled up by cops in plainclothes, dragged to the police station and made to fork out a fine of Rs 1,200 for ‘indecent behaviour’. Their crime? The woman had her arm around the man’s waist while they were sitting on a bench outside a Goregaon mall.

Runcil Rebello said Cheryl Godinho only had her arm around his waist and there was nothing indecent about it
